Chicago fell behind quickly as the Detroit offense came through in the first inning when they scored 5 runs on 5 hits. That was all the offense they were to need. Detroit rapped out 12 hits for the afternoon. Bridges(18-15) lasted until the end allowing 3 runs for the win. The losing pitcher was Ted Lyons(6-15). He pitched 2/3 of an inning and surrendered 5 hits and 1 walk.

The score was knotted at 6 after nine innings. Detroit was victorious in the 10th inning. Owen drew a walk. Pete Fox was next and he stroked a base-hit. After an out was recorded, Jo-Jo White stepped up to the plate and he was walked intentionally to load the bases. Ray Hayworth was the next batter, but he struck out.

He lost the ball over the fence for three runs in the 3rd inning, delivered a one-base hit in the 6th inning and launched a Grand Slam homerun (his 45th of the season) in the 9th inning. New York bats were hot in the 5th inning which saw them plate 6 runs on 5 hits, the 8th inning with 6 runs on 5 hits and the 9th inning when they had 6 runs on 5 hits. New York out-hit Philadelphia for the game, 22 hits to 15. Charlie Devens(1-0) allowed 6 runs in 8 and 2/3 innings, and picked up the victory. Sugar Cain(16-10) was charged with the loss. He was knocked around, surrendering 9 runs in 4 and 1/3 innings. 'I've spent a lot of time in the cage and made some adjustments and they've paid off,' Gehrig said. 'I just take the same approach up there. I don't overanalyze it. I go up there, see the ball and try to put a good swing on it.' ST. LOUIS AT CLEVELAND Browns.......... 0 1 1 0 2 1 0 0 0 - 5 14 1 Indians......... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 - 1 4 2 Win:Newsom(18-9) Loss:Hudlin(11-15) Save:Wells(2nd) Bruce Campbell had 2 base hits and 2 RBI as the St. Louis Browns topped the Cleveland Indians by a score of 5 to 1 at League Park.

The winning pitcher was Bobo Newsom(18-9) who allowed 1 run in 8 and 2/3 innings. Ed Wells recorded the save, his 2nd. Willis Hudlin(11-15) was hit with the loss. He allowed a few too many baserunners giving up 13 hits and 3 walks in 8 innings.
